Description:This patch allow you easily do playback of multiple file from the code using clean, small call.

you need to define, a struct, add item to the struct and play it back, sample example of a call

struct ast_playlist *pl=NULL;
pl = ast_playlist(pl,"digits/1",1000,chan->language);
pl = ast_playlist(pl,"digits/2",2000,chan->language);
pl = ast_playlist(pl,"digits/3",3000,chan->language);
pl = ast_playlist(pl,"digits/4",4000,chan->language);
ast_streamplaylist(chan,pl,"");

****** ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ******

This first patch is as a APP(for easy testing), but the function ast_ will be in the app.c , and the struct should be defined in app.h in the final stage

This patch is to allow to remove from voicemail,meetme and other, those static Menu, like conf-admin.  So you can build those menu easily in the code.

This is just to help building audio from multiple file in a easy way for 1 easy playback. For example, you got multiple IF that go in depending if the feature is available. So you can build the playlist before that, and add in every if, the prompt for each function, and then at the end, we can play it if we want or not.  For example, the MeetMe User and Admin menu, it currently 1 recording that contain all the options, so this playlist could be a easy way to build within the code that menu using multiple file.

Already mostly done in app.c with the new ivr_menu stuff, although not yet dynamic.

Ok Ive looked at ivr menu finally, and ivr menu might be ok for basic stuff, but for more advanced ivr, this playlist function is very usefull.

ivr menu code seem to be only a representation of extentions.conf line but in a C structure. ok a LITTLE more than that, you can call function and stuff.. but it basicly that.

What can you do with the attached API that cannot be done with the static API?
